T.J's inspection went above and beyond with my new home. The level of professionalism he shows is unquestionable. I'm glad my realtor recommended T.J to me and he will be my go-to inspector in the future.

Response from Company:

Eric-Thank you so much for the kind words and the five-star review! It has been my pleasure to help. I wish you and your family all the best in your new home!

Did a nice inspection and was quick to respond to any questions or comments i messaged to him

Response from Company:

Riley- Thank you so much for the 5 star review! I don't get to do nearly as many pre-purchase automotive inspections as I'd like to so this one was particularly fun for me. There's not many 1988 vehicles with 31K miles out there. Thank you for allowing me to help and I wish you all the best in your conversion project.

TJ is incredibly thorough and professional! This is the second time I’ve used his services. Would highly recommend!

Response from Company:

Thank you so much for the opportunity to inspect your investment again. It is and has been a pleasure working with your family. I truly appreciate the 5-star review as well. If there's anything that I can do for you and your family in the future please don't hesitate to let me know.

I have been working with TJ for years and he is my go-to inspector whenever there is a need for professionalism and reliability. He never fails to deliver responsive message and work to me and my clients.

Response from Company:

Ryan- thank you so much for the kind words and the 5-star review! It is always an honor when a real estate agent contacts me to perform an inspection on their personal purchase. I appreciate you allowing me to be part of your network. I wish you and your family all the best moving forward.

Inspect a Home

I have had several homes inspected over the years, but have never had a report as complete and detailed as provided by Mr Thompson. Tom was easy to work with and willing to to take the time to answer questions and explaiin what he was doing.

Response from Company:

Bill- Thank you so much for the kind words and the 5 star review. I always try to go above and beyond for my customers and give them as much information as possible for them to make an educated decision on the home or automobile they are purchasing. If there is anything I can do for you in the future, please let me know. Thank you again and I wish you all the best moving forward.

Inspect a Home

Professional, knowledgeable and excellent service, thank you TJ! They went over almost every inch of the house, listed on the report all the issues, as well as relevant laws/regulations. When I had a question after a few days, TJ was able to quickly review his pictures, and responded within a few minutes. Very nice experience working with you guys!

Response from Company:

Benjamin- Thank you so much for the kind words and the 5 star review. It is always my pleasure to help throughout the process even after you move in. My service doesn't stop just because I send a report. If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you again and I wish you all the best moving forward!

Very Professional, TJ did a great job. Explained in detail every questioning i had for him.

Response from Company:

Gary- Thank you for the kind words. It was a pleasure helping you and your wife through this process! I hope everything works out with the new home. Please keep us in mind if you would like to do a warranty inspection in the future. Thank you again.

Inspect a Home

TJ did a great job finding even the smallest of "opportunity areas" while inspecting the home. He clearly pointed out each area during the walkthrough and even gave a few tips on how to handle the repairs I wasn't comfortable with.

Response from Company:

Cody- My apologies for the delay in responding as I did not see the e-mail indicating that I received a review. it was a pleasure helping you through the process and I hope all is well with the home. Take care and stay safe!

TJ was a god send!! I worked with him on 4 properties. He is extremely knowledgeable, went the extra mile for me on each property!! Very reasonably Priced. and over all a very nice man!!! He explained everything to me in detail, answered all of my questions and phone calls. I cannot express how grateful I am to have found TJ. After the first phone conversation I was sold on working with him and he stuck with me until I had the home of my dreams. Thank You TJ my forever friend!!!

Find More Pros

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

HomeAdvisor verifies state-level licensing where applicable - note: some states require local or county level licensing and you should verify whether or not your pro is properly licensed.
To find more licensing information for your state, visit our Licensing Requirements page.

HomeAdvisor's Screening Process

HomeAdvisor uses an extensive screening process to screen businesses and business owners/principals. We perform this screening when a business applies to join our network and, if the business is accepted, whenever concerns are brought to our attention. If you have concerns that a pro in our network doesn't meet these standards, please contact us to investigate. We're committed to maintaining a network of trusted home service businesses, and those who don't meet our criteria will be rejected or promptly removed from our network.

Criminal Background Check

Who does HomeAdvisor background check?

The owner or principal of each business in HomeAdvisor's network (with the exception of Corporate Accounts) must pass a background check. Unfortunately, we cannot perform a background check on every employee of a business—the background checks are performed only on the owner or principal. As always, we recommend that you conduct your own research on the businesses you hire, including making inquiries directly with the businesses regarding their employee background check policies.

What does the background check cover?

We use a third-party vendor to conduct a criminal records search in the county in which the business owner or principal works. Our third-party vendor uses a national criminal database ("NCD") to screen service professionals. Business owners or principals with felony arrests that carry a pending decision or who are convicted of felonies in the past 7 years ago will not be admitted to the network. Businesses or owners convicted misdemeanors or felonies, or who have dismissed charges or arrests on their records involving rape/incest, sex offenses, or lewd and lascivious behavior at any point in time will not be admitted to our network.

Our background check does not exclude service professionals unless the crime at issue is a felony.

*The comprehensiveness of the NCD varies by state. Please be aware that the reporting in the NCD is particularly limited in the following states: AL, CO, DE, GA, ID, IL, KS, LA, ME, MA, MI, MS, MT, NE, NV, NH, NM, SD, UT, VA, VT, and WY. After initial admission to the HomeAdvisor network, businesses are re-screened if a concern is reported to HomeAdvisor.

Corporate Accounts

Some businesses are employees, franchisees, dealers or independent contractors ("Corporate SP's") of larger national or "Corporate Accounts". When this is the case, we may match you with the Corporate Account or with one of their Corporate businesses. The above screening process does not apply to Corporate Accounts, as HomeAdvisor does not screen Corporate Accounts or Corporate businesses.

Verify Trade License HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license. Verify Insurance As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services. Verification of State Business Filings For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located. Criminal Records Search HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business. Sex Offender Search We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located. Bankruptcy Search We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them. Legal Search for Civil Judgments We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them. Liens Search We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them. Identity Verification (SSN) HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup) We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.

NOTE: Member service professional information confirmed as described above may change or expire over time; while HomeAdvisor attempts to maintain accurate and up-to-date information, and confirms changes when notified, we cannot guarantee that profile and screening information is accurate. Therefore, we recommend that before working with a service professional you verify that information presented is still current and/or acceptable to you.
